(Image source: NBC ) BY CANDICE AVILES “Saturday Night Live” is bidding farewell to yet another cast member, eight-season staple Bill Hader. And he gave one last performance as club promoter Stefon on “Weekend Update.” BILL HADER: “I love you, Seth Meyers!” SETH MEYERS: “I love you, Stefon! For the ‘Weekend Update,’ we are Seth and Stefon Meyers. Good night!” (Via NBC ) And while not officially confirmed, reports claim 11-season pro Fred Armisen is leaving as well. He closed out Saturday’s show singing, “It’s been all right / I’ve had a lovely night with you,” with Hader and others. (Via NBC ) Entertainment Weekly compared their departure to Kristen Wiig’s last season, calling Saturday’s send-off episode more understated. “Armisen is a chameleon, it’s only fitting that he bid farewell in character — and it was equally fitting to see Hader, the show’s strongest supporting presence (when he’s not playing Stefon), say goodbye while backing up one of his castmates.” (Via Entertainment Weekly ) A writer for The Huffington Post agreed with that thought. “Both men left as they arrived, standouts of the ensemble, without overshadowing the cast. A fitting sendoff.” While it’s worth mentioning Ben Affleck hosted the show with musical guest Kanye West, Rolling Stone reports it was clear the stars of the night were the two departing cast members. Highlighting some of their standout moments, the writer noted Hader’s impressions of Al Pacino and Vincent Price and Armisen’s impersonations of President Obama and Saddam Hussein. The article also points out Hader’s “Weekend Update” skit almost felt like a goodbye for Seth Meyers, as well. Meyers is leaving around February in 2014 to host “Late Night.” (Via Examiner ) With at least three cast members set to leave, many of you might be wondering who’s left and whether “SNL” is bound for a rough patch without those key players. A writer for Variety says, “Don’t panic.” “[It] might seem dire, but students of ‘SNL’ history will note that past mass cast defections tend to be like forest fires: While the damage done is seemingly devastating, it actually has a counterintuitively restorative effect, clearing the way for future growth.” Looking ahead, according to the New York Daily News , Hader says he plans to catch up on sleep and move from New York City to Los Angeles. He told the paper, “I feel like I’m going to wake up in August and turn to my wife and say ‘Was I really on “ SNL ” ? It went by so fast.”
